Sporting News: College football rankings: Updated preseason top 25 for 2020 (#12. Minnesota)

[BleedGopher]

per Sporting News:

12. Minnesota
"Row the Boat" some more. P.J. Fleck can build off an 11-win season with the talent the Gophers return, including Tanner Morgan and Rashod Bateman in the passing game. Minnesota's entire offensive line is back, but the defense will miss All-American safety Antoine Winfield Jr. The Gophers are going to generate a lot of buzz this offseason, but the schedule is tougher this time around. A two-week stretch in October against Wisconsin and Michigan will be the turning point. For now, we have Minnesota ranked ahead of those teams.

These guys get it.

The funny thing is for a split second I had to make sure they weren't putting us at #12 in the big ten. So used to magazines doing no research and putting us there.

I think it’s interesting where B1G teams land on the Sporting News list:

2 Ohio State
9 Penn State
12 Minnesota
15 Michigan
16 Wisconsin

Maybe if he'd change his pants once in a while.....

It has been a long time since we've had a season with such decisive games early / mid season.

Although he Sporting News is only one publication I'm glad to see your in the top 12 surrounded by great teams. Hope the gophers can make the top 5 or top 4 this year.

I heard the NCAA was looking at a 6 playoff system in the near future. I would rather see 8 playoff teams. 5 P5 conference champs and 3 at large bids that have the rankings to make it. Still plenty of bowl games for the P5 and G5 that don't make the playoffs. I wont say good luck but I do wish you GREAT EXCUTION on both sides of the ball!
